An award-winning nutritionist, who is also Clinical Supervisor in Nutrition at the University of
West London, and leading voice in the beauty industry, has this month announced the launch
of a new wellbeing treatment, which she’s developed into an accreditation for beauty and
wellness salons to deliver, to enable her to impact more women globally and help more women
to feel better during Menopause.
Alison Bladh, a CIDESCO-qualified aesthetician and international number one bestselling
author, who has worked as a beauty educator globally, for many years, previewed the method
at Cosmoprof Bologna and has also been trialing it with her beauty therapy students for the
last 6 months. She has now created a certified accreditation for other beauty and wellness
salons to adopt her Meno Massage Method™
, a holistic treatment specifically designed to
support women through perimenopause, menopause and beyond.
The comprehensive training programme developed by Alison, is now being offered to beauty
salons and spas, via the opportunity to become certified Meno Massage practitioners.
Drawing on over 30 years of clinical experience in women’s skin health, Alison, who is also a
best selling author of ‘Have a Magnificent Menopause’
, has created a unique approach that
blends specialised massage movements, nervous system support, breathwork, reflex-inspired
touch, nutrition and lifestyle medicine to address the specific needs of women aged 40 and
over, bringing a significant advancement in menopause care within the beauty industry.
“After spending more than thirty years working with women 40 plus, I kept seeing the same
story unfold,
” said Alison,
“So many were struggling with fatigue, anxiety, poor sleep, stubborn
weight gain and changes in their skin. They needed more than a traditional spa treatment –
they needed something that recognised what was actually happening inside their bodies
during perimenopause and menopause. This is why I created the Meno Massage Method™
”
.
Alison’s expertise is built on a unique combination of qualifications and real-world experience.
As a registered nutritional therapist, award-winning beauty therapist, CIDESCO-qualified
aesthetician and educator in beauty therapy, she approaches skin health from every angle –
inside and outside. Her own journey began as a teenager struggling with acne, an experience
that founded her deep understanding of how profoundly skin health affects confidence and
wellbeing.
The Meno Massage Method™ is built on three key pillars: Mind and Body Reset through
specialised massage treatments (including 90-minute and 60-minute full body sessions, plus
targeted 30-minute treatments for back/neck/shoulders, abdomen, and face/décolletage);
Nutritional Support offering expert guidance on menopause-specific nutrition; and Lifestyle
Medicine strategies designed to relieve menopausal symptoms and support overall wellbeing.
Alison explained: “What sets this training apart is its comprehensive approach. Beauty
therapists learn not just massage techniques, but gain a deep understanding of hormonal
changes and how shifts in oestrogen, progesterone and cortisol affect energy, skin, mood and
overall wellbeing. Each certified therapist receives ready-to-use client materials, including
Lifestyle Wellness Cards and 10 complimentary copies of my book to gift to their first clients
after their treatment.
”
Early feedback from women experiencing the Meno Massage has been overwhelmingly
positive. Clients report improved sleep, reduced tension, better mood balance and a welcome
sense of being understood and supported during a challenging life transition.
“I finally felt someone understood what I was going through,
” shared one client.
“The massage
was deeply relaxing, but it also gave me a sense of emotional reset that I didn’t expect.
”
Therapists who have begun offering the method in their clinics share that their clients keep
returning for this treatment, saying it helps ease tension, improve sleep, and reduce the ‘
wired
and tired’ feeling so many women experience in menopause. The Meno Massages are quickly
becoming sought-after treatments because they offer something women often can’t find
elsewhere — genuine support, understanding and care during one of life’s biggest transitions.
Alison’s work has been featured in leading publications including OK! Magazine, The
Telegraph, Woman’s Own, Marie Claire, Saga, Stylist, and many more and she regularly speaks
at conferences and industry events on women’s health and menopause care.
Beauty therapists interested in becoming certified Meno Massage practitioners and bringing
this transformative treatment to their clients can request for Alison to deliver training to them
and their teams as she begins the rollout of this globally www.alisonbladh.com/menomassage.
